Subject: [NETLINK]: Put {IFA,IFLA}_{RTA,PAYLOAD} macros back for userspace.
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d3dcc077bf88806201093f86325ec656e4dbfbce;p=linux-beck.git

[NETLINK]: Put {IFA,IFLA}_{RTA,PAYLOAD} macros back for userspace.

GLIBC uses them etc.

They are guarded by ifndef __KERNEL__ so nobody will start
accidently using them in the kernel again, it's just for
userspace.
